/*
* I am trying to write a program for school children
* or anybody that needs help or wants to refresh their English grammer.
* The program will dislay a sentence on the screen, and ask the user to pick the nouns in the sentence. If they correctly pick
* the noun(s), they will prompted with something like, "Excellent Job!", if not they will be prompted to try again. This basic program
* displays the sentence, and ask the user to find the noun. If the user correctly identifies "one" noun, it displays,
* You are correct, the two nouns are boy and store.
* If the user does not provide the correct answer, it displays
* "No, that is not correct".
* I want to put a loop in here that will keep asking the user to try again until "all" the nouns are found. Also, how do I
* modify the program, so when the user inputs "one" noun, the program displays, that there are more nouns, and keeps
* prompting the user to find the remainder of the nouns.
*
* I started this small project to help my daughter and some of her classmates that are having difficulties with "nouns",
* "pronouns", "verbs"....etc
* Once I get a good understanding of this code, I will expand to pronouns, verbs, adverbs,etc...
*
* The program is in "Two Parts"...the first part I used a String Array...for the second part I used nested if loops. No special
* reason for the "two part" program. I am trying to learn as I go along, that is the reason for trying different methods.
*
* Any help anyone may be able to provide will be greatly appreciated. You may also contact me via my personal email
* at: xxxxxxxxxxx@ymail.com
* Once again, Thank you for your help.
* One more thing, I used Eclipse Luna to write and compile this program.
